I mean, the strategy worked well for the republicans the last time. Field the literal worst possible candidate, so that the lazy dems get complacent and start sitting it out in smug virtue signaling comfort instead of, y'know, actually voting, and the moron just gets in by default.

Oh, honey....
... he's going to win isn't he
Yes. If the US still exists by that time.
Yeah. It'll be easy, because they've rigged all of the vote tallying machines. There's pretty damning evidence that the Trump team hacked a whole bunch of voting machines and changed votes.
This isn't the bit about hacking the UPS's, is it? Because that's not a thing.
Stuxnet delivered RCE payloads over USB. Someone should look into these claims. I haven’t seen anything that wasn’t circumstantial, but I also haven’t seen anything that wasn’t possible.
He couldn’t even wait until the planes had landed to send a tweet about bombing Iran. They included a reporter on war plans using non-allowed comms. This isn’t a secret they could keep. If anything, I’ve always interpreted the fix the election mumbles as being about fixing the electoral system for the future, which they are hard at work dismantling things.
Would be hilarious to see a primary with Don Jr., Eric, and Ivanka.
No it wouldn’t. It’s bad enough.
Yeah until one of them wins
Isn't he pretty resoundingly useless? At least D has a cult of personality, Eric literally has nothing.
He has been known to have been rushed to the hospital once, because he kinda forgot how to breathe.
Both sides are going to eat him alive.
remember a decade ago when Donald Trump was starting in the primaries and it was a joke.
Hard to see that happening. What is the loyal opposition Democrats going to really go after him hard? When he's going to do everything their big donors want him to do? Doubt it. And the republicans? You think they're going to eat him alive? You think they're ambition will cause them to topple him? That ambition is a myth. Every Congressional Republican has shown that they have no problem giving up all of their power and authority. Conservatives are an inherently servile people. They exist to be ruled. They like having a daddy.
I don't know about running for President, but running for his life sounds like a wise choice
“Easy.” Being the president of the United States is “easy.”
I guess when pa Trump sets such a sterling example, the job must seem effortless.
Easy step because Congress, SCOTUS, and their owners saw to establishing an empire with bloodline empeeors.
I don't know Eric's middle initial but will toss out a guess that it's W.
